Do you like going to school?

I loved going to school and would easily enjoy spend my entire life in school as long as I could live in a quiet neighborhood.

Meh.

Standardized systems don't work well for us artsy types. I tolerate it for the time being.

A lot more than looking for work.

Cannot stand it. It drives me crazy. I feel sick even thinking about it. Too busy, too crowded, too noisy, too stressful.

I used to love it but once I reached a certain grade, I began to hate it. People became a lot more critical to me, partially because I stopped trying to fit in, the noise levels increased, I find large classes stressful, and I can't focus one iota with so many distractions around me.

I probably would have hated junior high and high school except that when I wasn't in school, I was out working on the farm. That meant lots and lots of very, very dull driving of tractors and other hard labor. Going to school was, to me, a vacation from the farm.

Apart from the farm work, undergraduate work in college was a major improvement over high school and graduate work was another big step over undergraduate work. I loved grad school.

Gave me anxiety attacks
Everytime I switched classes I would get an attack.
I like learning,My brain is a sponge, just not in a "normal" school with "normal" people.

No, I don't; I mean, it's not that I hate it, but I just don't like it.

The opposite, for me. Here in Italy we don't have special classes, and however, if there were special classes, I wouldn't go in one, because: 1) My parents would want me to attend a normal class; 2) I am supposed to learn how to live an almost "normal" life, and I could I learn how to do it while being in class with other people with disabilities?; 3) My father said they do nothing in special classes; he knows because when he was in elementary school there were still special classes in Italy, and he was put in one of them because he had issues as a child, and he said that they just did nothing there, and that he would have liked to be in a normal class.

I was a smart kid but I HATED school. I suppose if you were bullied as I was you wouldn't have enjoyed it either. That, and when I wasn't hiding I was bored out of my mind and wasn't even allowed to use the washroom when I was in agony. I swear prisoners are treated better than schoolkids sometimes. If I had to choose between redoing my school years or going to jail for the equivalent time, it would be an easy decision. At least in jail the guards will sometimes protect you and it's obvious you have no choice and little freedom.

So yes I hated school more than anything in the world. How I survived with my sanity intact is anyone's guess. People told me I would appreciate those years the older I got but I'm almost up to 30 and still hate every minute I spent in school with the possible exception of Gym class.

Yes, I like it. I don't like the schoolwork much but I enjoy the company of friends and learning new things. Psychology class, for instance, is great, and so is the science class (genetics, so much fun, wheee!).

Who does? We all know school is created for people to learn, but what good does it do when there are kids who torment you for being 'weird' and teachers who embarrasses you because they think you'll never amount to anything in life. Where's the fun in that?
It's also not fun when they teach you complicated subjects and you're still behind from the other kids who learn faster than you. Later, your parents scold you for the bad grades you get because they think you're not focused enough. NO! It's because you learn things differently and at a different pace, only then you'll start to understand these subjects better.
So, my answer to your question is a HELL NO!

I actually like going to school it allows me to do other things as well. Also my parents don't make do housework if I am studying. I actually remember my teachers saying I would be successful in life.

In spite of the bullying, junior high and high school was much better than staying home. Staying home meant doing hard work, not sitting around the house watching tv and eating.

I remember one year when we had a blizzard, I spent the entire two days on horseback looking for cattle that had gotten out. I've never gotten so cold in my life. If you moving around out in the cold, you are generating heat to help keep you warm to some degree. If the horse is moving around through the snow drifts and you are sitting on top of the horse, you aren't generating much heat.

I spent my winter Saturdays for two school years welding. Snow would have melted and there were pools of water on the floor. Standing in the water and welding meant frequent shocks while running beads.

short answer = No.

long answer = definitely not.
